I thought I'd add that the Mickey Thompson ET street drag radials don't throw stones under light driving conditions at lower speeds around town. The tire is rated temperature C, so what that means is they heat quickly if you get on it at which point they stick quickly as well. If you drive at higher speeds around 75 or more on the freeway for a time they will heat up and toss stones if you pull off to a road with debris.

All that said the Mickey Thompson ET street drag radial isn't the end all tire for the drag strip. They will slip quite a bit out of the hole and on down the pass on a poor track prep.

I run the MT tire 325/50 15 on the rear. I have the BFG radial TA on the front.
